Mango, pineapple and strawberry juice sounded delicious for a sore throat I had. A bit of vanilla ice cream was added for creaminess!
The continued adventure of melting popsicles! This is a lazy picture of a melted and strained piña colada popsicle mixed with pineapple and orange juice. And a tiny bit of lemon and juice from our strawberries. The ice cream made it an interesting tropical float, but it probably would have been better without it.
I could go for some more right now.
I think my new favorite thing is melting popsicles and drinking them…they taste so much better that way! I melted three different 100% fruit popsicles and layered them. The bottom is strawberry and the middle is piña colada. On the top is “caribbean” flavor, which contains strawberries, pineapple, mango, passion fruit, and coconut.
After I layered and froze them I waited until they were melty again to eat/drink them!
I recently had family over and was presented with the task of baking a carrot cake and some triple chocolate brownie cookies for them to feast upon. The carrot cake uses an 8 oz can of pineapple which must be drained. Usually I mix all that juice with orange juice and drink it, but this time I thought to throw some strawberries in the food processor and combine all three. The result was drool-worthy!
Making chai, cafe mocha, the pictured apricot green tea and hot chocolate all in the same day: does it make me crazy? Well, their amounts were greatly reduced. But still.
Caffeine never really affects me, but I guess I had a bit too much from all these liquids….I ended up being super nocturnal last night. Oops.
Ha, I pulled those peanut butter cookies out from the depths of the freezer. They were still frozen in that photo!
